Waste Management & Recycling

Reception, segregation, transport and final disposal of the waste a vessel generates in port — garbage, plastics, glass, metal, used oil and sludge — with recycling wherever the material and the local infrastructure allow it, and documentation for the vessel’s garbage record book.

Talk to our team

MARPOL Annex V categories are handled by our own teams under a documented chain of custody, so the master keeps evidence of where every stream ended up — not a subcontractor’s word for it.

Documented, compliant, coordinated. Every stream sorted, tracked and recorded, with paperwork ready for the vessel’s garbage record book.

Where every stream ends up

Reception & segregation

Garbage, plastics, glass, metal, used oil and sludge are received and sorted by our own teams, not handed off to a third party.

Transport under chain of custody

Each stream is transported to disposal or recycling, documented at every step of the way.

Disposal, recycling & documentation

Final disposal or recycling is recorded for the vessel’s garbage record book, so the master has evidence of where everything went.

“Our people are the service.”

Where it fits in the call

Waste management is often arranged together with organic waste incineration, as part of any port call handled by your port agency during a Strait of Magellan transit.
